Multiple Personality Disorder

Question:
http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130130075424AA0MTIs

Is Multiple Personality Disorder a social legal problem than mental health issue?

"Dissociative identity disorder (DID), also known as multiple personality disorder (MPD), is a mental disorder characterized by at least two distinct and relatively enduring identities or dissociated personality states that alternately control a person's behavior, and is accompanied by memory impairment for important information not explained by ordinary forgetfulness."

Associating to a fictional person is the key trick to get legal jurisdiction in a society. Magistrates of court systems rely on it. Even healthy people with flesh and blood get imprisoned and executed for being slaved to this psychological trick.

It is difficult to define privileges and punishments, if an individual associates with multiple identities in a system. (legal immunity of one over another as defense)

Is psychology a legal tool to judge faulty/disorder in multiple personalities of a mentally strong individual?

Can MPD be a mental health issue, if an individual does not associate with any society, where identity has no use to him or her?
